The Smoking Section (Free subscription) | 28/11/2009

Lost Classics - Volume 2
Adam's World (Free subscription) | 27/11/2009
With so many great albums that go unrecognized, or under-recognized, I found a plethora of CDs that I wanted to remind people about this month. The two I ended up choosing are Phife Dawg’s first solo effort, Ventilation: Da LP, and the album that introduced the world to t.A.T.u., 200 km.r in the Wrong Lane. Listening to both again the other night made it clear to me that these are both Lost

the ARE and Manipulated Marauders.
Analog Giant (Free subscription) | 21/11/2009
This is two years old but I wanted to give it some light. Manipulated Marauders is a great take on the Tribe Called Quest's classic record Midnight Maurauders . The ARE Houston based beat maker who has been making beats since 1991 has done some great things. He used all of the original samples from A Tribe Called Quest’s Midnight Marauders and re-produced the tracks giving them his own spin....

Q-Tip: Kamaal the Abstract (Reviews)
PopMatters Music (Free subscription) | 19/11/2009
For all the talk of it as experimental, Kamaal the Abstract satisfies and soothes more than it challenges or questions. The first song on Kamaal the Abstract is titled “Feelin’”. That seems about right. So much of what A Tribe Called Quest was up to in their 10-year career was trying to capture a feeling, a vibe. When they proclaimed “We got the jazz”, it wasn’t...

Music: Review:Wale: Attention Deficit
A.V. Club (Free subscription) | 17/11/2009
Underground hip-hop reveres A Tribe Called Quest, but in a post-Kanye West world, there’s no longer any shame in both blowing up and going pop. Take Washington D.C.’s Wale, for example. After building a serious buzz through mixtapes like 100 Miles & Running and the vaguely Seinfeld -themed The Mixtape About Nothing— and after signing with Mark Ronson’s Allido label—Wale...
